This thread sure has devolved from it's title subject, so back to the thread theme.
I got busted when I was about 4 or 5 for peeing out a 2nd floor front window.
There was a roof to the front porch outside the window.
Unknown to me, mom was on the porch.
It wasn't raining so I got caught when liquid ran off the front of the porch roof.
Mom did think corporal punish was proper, so my small butt got blistered.
She still brings it up when she thinks I'm in need of a humility lesson. She's almost 80, but still shape as a tack.
